I wrote you several weeks ago, dismayed at not seeing my milkweeds returning. Now they are HERE! The five in the back garden have only returned as two... naturally in different spots. (I also added new Swamp Milkweed plant to these Common Milkweed plantings). In the front yard, my former two large Common Milkweeds have returned, and sprouted an additional five, each several feet from the original tubers! One came up right next to my new lilac bush, and two came up next to my very old holly bush. So there are seven in the front of the house and two in the back, plus three new Swamp Milkweed seedlings planted and taking hold. Now hopefully some critters will spread the word to let the Monarchs know that we have milkweeds for them!!
